Answer:
5.9 radian
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying,
S = 2πrФ/360°…………….. Equation 1
Where s = length of the arc, r = radius, Ф = angle.
make Ф the subject of the equation
Ф = 360S/(2πr)……….. Equation 2
From the question,
Given: S = 30.3, r = 5.1
Constant: π = 3.14
Substitute into equation 2
Ф = (360×30.3)/(2×5.1×3.14)
Ф = 340.58°
Ф = (340.58×2×3.14)/360
Ф = 5.9 radian
